On Thursday's Grey's Anatomy, Callie faced a malpractice lawsuit that could've ended with her out of a job. Callie's former patient was a pro snowboarder who was once under the care of Cristina. He was in need of a new hip, but there was a minor complication during surgery. Callie refused to admit fault, so she had to go to trial, where we learned that the complication cost the snowboarder his legs.

In a flashback to Meredith's baby shower - before Arizona's infidelity - Arizona brings up the couple having another baby, but she'll carry it this time. The baby would be their first bright spot since the crash that claimed Arizona's leg. We learn that Arizona did, in fact, get pregnant, and the couple even looked at a house to buy for their expanding family. But Arizona lost the baby, which brought up memories of loss again similar to that of the plane crash, so she told Callie she didn't want to try again.

Their loss of the baby coincided with the loss of the snowboarder's legs, making Callie feel like she may have been distracted. To top it off, Callie discovers a document dated three weeks before the surgery that would have stopped her from using a particular method. She decides not to disclose that information on Meredith's urging, and thankfully, the jury finds her not guilty.

The one bright spot throughout the case is that Arizona is actually there to support Callie, bringing the two of them closer. Callie's father also comes to town to support her, even though he's very angry at Arizona for hurting his daughter. When her dad reveals that he once cheated on her mother, Callie seeks out Arizona to make amends, asking her to come home. Arizona immediately kicks Leah out of her bed and, hopefully, out of her life.

Are you excited Callie and Arizona might get back together?

Grey's Anatomy airs Thursdays at 9/8c on ABC.
